That's all folks

Thank you very much for your company today. I reckon we’ve had more play than we anticipated. There have been tons for some lovely players: Sangakkara, Wessels, Cook and Westley (who was bowled by Abbott last ball of the day ... ), as well as a very even Roses match. Shame about that Jimmy injury.

Here are the scores on the doors!

Div One:

Surrey 265-5 v Middlesex

Yorkshire 251-6 v Lancashire

Warwickshire 93-3 v Somerset

Essex 243-2 v Hampshire

Div Two:

Notts 335-6 v Glamorgan

Derbyshire 111-3 v Worcs

Leicestershire and Kent didn’t see a ball bowled

Injury worry for England after Jimmy Anderson limps out of Roses match

Wicket! Sibley is gone now. Helm, who really has deserved a wicket, has him caught at first slip, where he was earlier dropped. A very simple catch. He made 54, and the score is 197 for four. Foakes on his way out.

Half-centuries for each of Tom Westley – is he timing his run well? – and some lad called Alastair Cook have seen Essex recover well from 0-1 at Chelmsford against Hampshire. They have put on 131 for the second wicket.

A significant shower – minus thunder – has halted proceedings and they won’t be back for a while. Warwickshire 93-3. All three wickets have fallen to Overtons, two to Jamie in the morning, one to Craig (that of Ian Bell) in the afternoon.

The pitch is expected to help spinners – there are six of them selected for this game but there has been no sign of any turn so far. Jack Leach has bowled very accurately but the Overtons have caused more problems. Jonathan Trott has settled in despite a few extravagant movements early in his innings against Jamie Overton, the faster bowler among the twins (even Craig might concede that). So the initiative in an intriguing game has yet to be seized.

The highlight of my day so far - there is an old players’ dinner later on – has been the privilege of giving Leach his county cap. He has endured a tough winter through no fault of his own but looks to be bowling well again. There will be every opportunity for him to bowl a lot of overs in this contest.
